vs. BLUE JAYS 5/29

[CA-ORIOLE]

This is brutal.

Sorry to add to the wet blankets but yes, this is the team I used to watch. I wondered where they'd been. Seen em all weekend long.

Expecting us to sink slowly but surely to the bottom of the division without aplomb while continuing to commit errors at a League-leading rate, striking out regularly, leaving a lot of men on base, often via the double-play, and not having our starters get beyond 6 -- often 5, so that we continue to force bullpen innings at, again, a League-leading rate.

Makes me so sad.

At least the good baseball lasted longer this year.

Wonder if Avery would have caught that foul ball?

Jake gone. I am interested to see the new Gonzo.

Avery needed to get sent down. The question is would Chavez have caught it?

[Orioles0615]

This would be the moment where I would boo Arrieta.

Luke Scott would have come closer!!

[scOtt]

Gonzalez should be able to go 2 innings or more, right? He has started some this year already.

I pull a muscle just watching guys sprint on that field, it does not look nice to run and play on.

[scOtt]

Slider?

[MarylandAaron]

Time to send Arrieta packing. He'll have a decent start every now and then, but most of the time he does exactly what he's done tonight. Good stuff but bad command, giving up lots of runs, high pitch count, etc. To think, he has 280 ML innings and is still pitching like a rookie. Shame.

93 and slider. Bordie says curve and split too. Finishes square, I like that!

[WEAVERMAN]

How often has a team's OD starter been demoted to AAA? I guess not very often. DD said yesterday on the Mid-Atlantic Sports Report, that Hunter and Arietta had to do better. One is gone and the other should go with him or to the BP, as TP suggests. Britton replaces one and other TBD.

Complacent Reynolds sighting!
